Kintsugi Zuihitsu

Kintsugi (金継ぎ), the art of golden repair, transforms brokenness into beauty by highlighting fractures with precious metal rather than hiding them. Zuihitsu (随筆), meaning “following the brush,” represents the Japanese literary form of spontaneous, personal reflection that flows naturally from thought to thought.

This vault embodies both concepts: kintsugi in how it transforms scattered thoughts and broken learning attempts into a unified golden network of knowledge, and zuihitsu in its organic, wandering structure that follows curiosity rather than rigid categorization.

The structure separates transparent knowledge that can be shared publicly from protected development requiring privacy, while maintaining natural connections between all areas of exploration.
